Description
This learning guide is intended to inform educators about Aperture’s publication This Equals That, and aid them in leading meaningful discussions surrounding its content. This Equals That, a clever and surprising picture book by Jason Fulford and Tamara Shopsin, takes viewers on a whimsical journey, while introducing them to the fundamentals of visual literacy and teaching them associative thinking. As the first lesson in Aperture’s visual literacy curriculum, This Equals That can be used to teach how form, content, and context work together to create meaning(s) within a single image or group of images. Through a playful and considered sequence of photographs, the book inspires conversation and multiple interpretations, allowing for an inquiry-based learning experience. Teacher/parent and student/child can continually answer the question: how does this equal that?   For more information about Aperture’s educational resources contact education@aperture.org.
